Legislative Consent: Birmingham Commonwealth Games Bill
Legislative Consent: Birmingham Commonwealth Games Bill
This
is a matter where the consent of the National Assembly for Wales is sought by
the UK Government to legislate on an issue which could normally fall within the
competence of the Assembly.
The
Birmingham
Commonwealth Games Bill was introduced in the House of Lords on 5 June
2019.
The
Bill seeks to address a small number of areas which require a legislative
response in respect of the preparations for the Commonwealth Games, which are
due to take place in Birmingham in 2022.
The
Welsh Government laid a Legislative Consent Memorandum (LCM) on the Bill before
the National Assembly on 19
June 2019 (PDF, 73KB).
The
Bill failed to complete its passage through UK Parliament before Dissolution.
This means the Bill will make no further progress.
